Over half the hotel housekeepers surveyed in a Seattle poll say they've been sexually harassed on the job. Are panic buttons the solution? And should the accused guests be banned from those hotels?

Digital and media literacy are an ideal framework for providing students with the 21st century life skills they need: critical thinking, self-expression, technological fluency and global awareness. The Seattle region is a leader in technology, media, and online journalism, and the moment is right for this city to emerge as a leader in the increasingly vital field of digital media literacy.
The goal of the Seattle Digital LiteracyProgram is to help empower youth in our region as educated consumers and critics of -- and producers and participants in -- today's complex media landscape.

The Seattle area was previously inhabited by Native Americans for at least 4,000 years before the first permanent European settlers.Arthur A. Denny and his group of travelers, subsequently known as the Denny Party, arrived from Illinois via Portland, Oregon on the schooner Exact at Alki Point on November 13, 1851. The settlement was moved to the eastern shore of Elliott Bay and named "Seattle" in 1852, after Chief Si'ahl of the local Duwamish and Suquamish tribes.

The initiative may take the form of a indirect initiative or an direct initiative. In a direct initiative, a measure is put directly to a vote after being submitted by a petition. In an indirect initiative, a measure is first referred to the legislature, and then put to a popular vote only if not enacted by the legislature.

Canada

British Columbia

The Canadian province of British Columbia has a citizen initiative law known as the Recall and Initiative Act. The original proposal was put to voters in a referendum held in October 1991 and was supported by over 83% of voters. It was subsequently put into force by the incoming NDP government. Since it came into force in 1995, several attempts have been made to hold an initiative, but until the fall of 2010, none had succeeded in reaching the first of the thresholds – namely, securing signatures of 10% of registered voters in each riding throughout British Columbia. The first referendum was held under this legislation on September 2011 on the subject of repealing the Harmonized Sales Tax. Details of its use in BC are available on the Elections BC website.

"Why Rowing?" | The Row to the Future Initiative

Through the George PocockRowingFoundation's youth development initiative, Row to the Future, Seattle is doing what no other city in the U.S. is doing.

Erg Ed provides opportunities beyond the classroom through camps, field trips and indoor-rowing competitions. We also provide support for on-the-water rowing as part of Rainier Valley Rowing (RVR), which helps students overcome barriers to participation in traditional junior rowing programs such as cost, swimming ability and transportation.

Fact: 500 million plastic straws are used every day in the United States alone. If we don’t change our habits now, by 2050 there will be more plastic than fish in our ocean. Adrian Grenier ("Entourage") and his LonelyWhaleFoundation are working to combat plastic pollution. Throughout the month of September, Seattle residents are encouraged to join Adrian Grenier’s entourage as his nonprofit organization Lonely Whale Foundation launches Strawless in Seattle throughout the city. The month-long series is part of Lonely Whale Foundation’s Strawless Ocean global initiative, which aims to remove 500 million plastic straws from the U.S. waste stream in 2017.

Vice President Joe Biden and his wife Jill Biden, PhD, visited UC San Francisco to meet with top cancer experts as part of the NationalCancerMoonshot initiative to develop new approaches that fast-forward the development of novel therapies.
The Bidens’ visit was the latest stop on a national listening tour to meet with scientists to learn how they can help improve the process of cancer research, as well as meet with cancer patients and survivors to help improve care. Since President Barack Obama announced that the vice president would be leading this cancer initiative in January’s State of the Union address, Biden said he’s received overwhelming support for this effort, for which the White House has given $1 billion in initial funding.

USACE Resilience Initiative - What You Need to Know

In 2015, the Corps established its ResilienceInitiative. Before its inception (and more so since the initiative was kicked off) resilience has been a topic in the news and used widely to describe everything from pillows ("resilient pillows") to cities bouncing back from disaster or people facing horrible circumstances. The Corps has long provided resilient projects and systems, so what does having a 'resilience initiative' mean to us, and, with all the types of resilience out there, what do we mean by resilience.

The impact the v1.0 release will have on the container landscape
Implementations and use cases
Value and benefits of the certification program and what that means for container standards
Future plans for the OCI

In 2015, the Corps established its ResilienceInitiative. Before its inception (and more so since the initiative was kicked off) resilience has been a topic in the news and used widely to describe everything from pillows ("resilient pillows") to cities bouncing back from disaster or people facing horrible circumstances. The Corps has long provided resilient projects and systems, so what does having a 'resilience initiative' mean to us, and, with all the types of resilience out there, what do we mean by resilience.

Seattle Digital Literacy Initiative

Digital and media literacy are an ideal framework for providing students with the 21st century life skills they need: critical thinking, self-expression, technological fluency and global awareness. The Seattle region is a leader in technology, media, and online journalism, and the moment is right for this city to emerge as a leader in the increasingly vital field of digital media literacy.
The goal of the Seattle Digital LiteracyProgram is to help empower youth in our region as educated consumers and critics of -- and producers and participants in -- today's complex media landscape.

Hey! Okay so this video is a little different than my normal videos but I thought it would be a cool mix of a "What To Do When You're Bored" video and a travel video! I made this video over 2 different trips to Seattle and it was mostly cloudy (of course) but I think there are a couple days of sunny footage in here! I have 6 ideas of things to do, there's so much more you could do but these are some of the most well known and I thought it would be cool for you all to see it from my perspective.

Vice President Joe Biden and his wife Jill Biden, PhD, visited UC San Francisco to meet with top cancer experts as part of the NationalCancerMoonshot initiative to develop new approaches that fast-forward the development of novel therapies.
The Bidens’ visit was the latest stop on a national listening tour to meet with scientists to learn how they can help improve the process of cancer research, as well as meet with cancer patients and survivors to help improve care. Since President Barack Obama announced that the vice president would be leading this cancer initiative in January’s State of the Union address, Biden said he’s received overwhelming support for this effort, for which the White House has given $1 billion in initial funding.

Panel: The Open Container Initiative (OCI) and the Future of Container Standardization [I]

Panel: The OpenContainerInitiative (OCI) and the Future of Container Standardization [I] - Moderated by Chris Aniszczyk, Linux Foundation
With the proliferation and rapid growth of container-based solutions over the past few years-- including container-based solutions from almost all major IT vendors and cloud providers as well as emerging start-ups-- the industry needed a standard on which to support container formats and runtime. Enter the Open Container Initiative (OCI), established to help promote a set of common, minimal open standards and specifications around container formats and runtime. Setting a baseline de facto standard, OCI will soon release version 1.0 of its runtime and image format specifications, now ready to look at what’s next for the future of container standardization and distribution. Hear from OCI members who are experts in container technology as they discuss the project’s progress at large with special focus on what’s coming next after the v1.0 release and certification program launch. Additional discussion topics will include:
How the runtime and image format specs are driving broader innovation
The impact the v1.0 release will have on the container landscape
Implementations and use cases
Value and benefits of the certification program and what that means for container standards
Future plans for the OCI
